io9's firs book club meeting is up, discussing Paul McAuley'sThe Quiet War.Editor Annalee Newitz writes, "One of the things I liked the most about this novel was the way McAuley described the geoengineering projects on all the outer planets and their moons. The descriptions were vivid and felt realistic; and I liked watching Macy at work in the lab. What did you guys think about the science in the book? Too much? Too little? Relevant or irrelevant to the plot?"
